Pregnancy very unlikely without having sex.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Without having a sex you can get pregnant only with the help of assisted reproductive techniques like artificial insemination or IVF.

Putting the sperm on the finger and then inserting it deep into vagina has a very remote chances of pregnancy.
When the egg is released, it is best to time to have sex to conceive.

Delay in periods can be due to pregnancy, hormonal disturbance, post pill amenorrhea, polycystic ovaries, etc. It needs detailed investigations to find the cause.
